WILMINGTON, Del. - Wilmington Hammerheads FC announced Monday they have signed forward/midfielder Sunny Jane for the upcoming 2014 USL PRO regular season. Jane, a former player for the Maryland men’s soccer team, will make his professional debut with the Hammerheads this season.

“I am looking forward to playing the best soccer I have ever played in my life,” said Jane. “My goal is to help take the team to the championship this coming season.”

Jane played in every match in back-to-back seasons during his 2012 and 2013 campaigns. He recorded eight goals and 19 assists in four seasons with the Terrapins. He was tabbed an All-ACC second team selection in 2011. He was listed as the No. 10 recruit in the country out of Trinity High School in Louisville, Ky., by TopDrawerSoccer.com before committing to play at Maryland for head coach Sasho Cirovski.

"Sunny Jane is a very dynamic attacking player with a cultured left foot,” said Cirovski. “He will become a fan favorite instantly both with his play and his charming personality. He was a joy to coach and a pleasure to be around. He had many magic moments for us and I know he will produce the same and more for the Hammerheads."

Wilmington Hammerheads FC kick off their 2014 USL PRO regular season on Saturday, April 5 at 7:30 p.m. versus the Harrisburg City Islanders at Legion Stadium.
